How to find out anything

from extreme Google searches to scouring government documents a guide to uncovering anything about everyone and everything
Don MacLeod
Book - 2012

"Not your average research book, How to Find Out Anything shows you how to unveil nearly anything about anyone. From top CEOs' salaries to police records, you'll learn little-known tricks for discovering the exact information you're looking for. You'll learn: - How to really tap into the power of Google, and why Google is the best place to start a search, but never the best place to finish it. - The scoop on vast yet little-known online resources that search engines cannot scour, such as refdesk.com, ipl.org, the University of Michigan Documents Center, and Project Gutenberg, among many others. - How to access free government resources (and put your tax dollars to good use). - How to find experts and other people with special knowledge. - How to dig up seemingly confidential information on people and businesses, from public and private companies to nonprofits and international companies"--Provided by publisher.
